If the beautiful picture above hasn’t already persuaded you to book straight away then carry on reading so I can explain why staying at the ultimate contemporary Chalet Les Anges is one of the best experiences you will ever have and ultimately one of the finest decisions you will make.
After a magical train ride up through the mountain villages I soon arrived in the luxury resort of Zermatt to be greeted by the lovely Joanne, who whisked myself and many other excited faces into an electro taxi up to the pretty Petit Village area. Within a few minutes I was standing next to the magnificent Chalet absolutely mesmerised. Chalet Les Anges alone is absolutely stunning, but with an outlook over Zermatt centre and magical views of the Matterhorn and the surrounding mountains behind, it was truly breathtaking. Luckily the fabulous and ever cheerful chalet manager, Upton, swiftly appeared to reassure us that we weren’t dreaming, offering to take our bags and at the same time handing us a glass of Perrier Jouët champagne.
After admiring the stunning open plan living area, which was designed by the renowned interior architect Magali de Tscharner, where the beautiful reclaimed wood has been blended perfectly with the contemporary furnishings we were soon settling into each of our luxurious en-suite bedrooms. With six of the seven spacious bedrooms offering the most spectacular views of the Matterhorn and with mine having a private balcony, I was most definitely in heaven.
The professional service at Les Anges will continue to amaze you, with a delicious afternoon tea offering a delectable selection of croissants, savoury and fruit tarts (you can imagine which one I leapt at), a fruit platter and a wonderful selection of teas and coffee. Before you know it you will once again be enjoying a lovely glass of bubbles or tipple of choice, whilst the team whisk around offering an array of mouth watering canapes. Make sure you leave enough room for the headliner though, a superb 7 course gourmet meal. This cuisine is unlike any other with the genius chef whipping up incredible course after course and with the dedicated and wonderful hosts continuously topping up your glass of either white or red wine, depending on the course, its ideal pairing and your preference. I have to say the Swiss white wine is the best I have ever had. Just a shame that the Swiss don’t export much of it! Do make sure you make the most of the delicious flavours and aromas whilst on your luxury holiday.
At the end of the evening we retired to the sofas to enjoy the final course of a moreish Swiss cheese board which was accompanied with a glass of port, whilst listening to some beautiful classical music played by one of my contemporaries. If you are as musically talented as a bar of soap, like myself, then a wonderful and talented musician can be provided to serenade you in this elegant setting.
The following day was just as magical as the first, where it started in the best possible way with a very impressive and lavish breakfast spread, which offered a range of hot cooked options, breads, pastries, fruits, yoghurts, cereals, homemade jams, cured meats, salmon, eggs, pancakes and more. I really could not have asked for, or expected anything more.
On my trip I was lucky enough to be treated to the best massage I have ever had, in a stunning and amazingly serene wellness area. From the moment you walk down the stairs and into the spa you immediately feel ten times more relaxed. After making the hardest decision of your whole day of whether you want lavender or ginger oils, you will very quickly succumb to the serenity. Go on, surrender yourself to the fabulous touch of the masseuse, letting her work her magic, whilst soaking in the surroundings where the walls are beautifully decorated with silver birch trunks. A true haven to relax in.
The only good part of your massage finishing is that it’s not the end of being spoilt rotten. You then have the luxury of enjoying either the sauna or hammam steam room within the beautifully decorated white marble clad relaxation area. If you can possibly tear yourself away from the sheer bliss of the spa area, with a fountain and ornamental pool, then head outside to the elegant black granite plunge pool with massaging jets and underwater lighting, where you can enjoy magnificent views of the Matterhorn.
This contemporary and luxurious chalet with exemplary service truly is hard to walk away from. If only you could take the fabulous chefs, hosts and housekeeping team home with you. On walking back into the blissful surroundings of the chalet after a long day out and about, enjoying the spectacular sights of Zermatt, you can be rest assured that you will come back to a clean and comfortable environment. Your bedroom will be as immaculate and beautiful as when you first arrived, along with a sparkly bathroom. In the evening the curtains will have been drawn and your incredibly comfortable bed with those luxurious soft linens and highly appealing fluffy pillows will be waiting, and if that wasn’t enough you will find a special gift. I will leave the rest a surprise for you to enjoy!
From the moment I arrived in Zermatt I felt completely and utterly spoiled rotten, from when I first set eyes on Chalet Les Anges, where the only word I could muster was a simple ‘wow’, to the sensational cuisine and the professional, dedicated and discreet service.
